D.J. Moore just did that. Then he… undid it?
The former Maryland wide receiver tied the game for the Carolina Panthers following a miraculous Hail Mary heave from quarterback P.J. Walker. Unfortunately, his celebration also led to a long extra point attempt that the Panthers pulled left. Of course, this could not have happened to any team other than the Atlanta Falcons.
The play was officially a 62-yard touchdown, but the throw from Walker had to have been in the air for at least 75 yards.

The game went into overtime tied at 34. Moore, to his credit, now has 6 receptions for 152 yards and a touchdown on the afternoon.
The throw was Walker’s only of the game and 3rd of the season.
